Reminders-sort order of tasks does not sync

I'm trying to use Reminders on my iPhone 4s, iMac running Mountain Lion and iCloud. Although syncing does occur BETWEEN THESE 3 APPS,
THE SORT ORDER OF THE TASKS IS COMPLETELY OUT OF SYNC. I need to sort my many to do tasks manually as priorities change
daily. Therefore it's important to have the sort order (sequence of task items) sync across these devices. I imagine many users would agree with this.

Just discovering for myself that re-ordering reminders can be achieved - but order is not synced between devices or shared accounts. Which is to say it's about as much use as a chocolate teapot.
For the record, I have thrown the equivalent of a message in a bottle to feedback - an action for which I believe the acronym is CWOT.
Also, it seems there's a thing called customer quality feedback...

However, it doesn't work...
Alas, it seems the writing is on the wall for Apple.

Changing sort order in iTunes does not change order on iPad

If you create a new playlist (not a smart playlist) in iTunes, you can get the songs to order according to the track number or the name of the song or the size etc. It used to be that this selected sort order would be reflected in the corresponding playlists on the iPhone/iPad
This doesn't seem to work using iTunes 10.6, iTunes Match and iOS 5.1 on my iPad 2.
1. I create a new playlist in iTunes and name it Test.
2. I sort this playlist by the Name column, so that the songs are in the A to Z order (Fernando, SOS, Waterloo)
3. The new playlist appears on my iPad.
4. The iPad playlist lists the songs in the order selected in iTunes.
Now, back in iTunes, I click on the Name column again, so the names are now sorted in reverse. That is, from Z to A (Waterloo, SOS, Fernando). I also rename the playlist to Test 2 so that I know that the same playlist has been updated on my iPad.
So the playlist Test 2 is now ordered by the song name from Z to A in iTunes. However, the playlist on the iPad does NOT reflect the new sort order. It is still ordered A to Z, not Z to A as I expected.
5. Now I create a new playlist named Test 3. I open Test 2 (still in the order Z to A) and copy the songs to Test 3.
6. The new playlist named Test 3 appears on the iPad.
7. The songs are in the correct order.
8. Change the order again in the playlist.
9. The change in the order is NOT reflected on the iPad.
Grrr. I quit the Music app (including the background process on the iPad) and launch it again. But the order of the songs in Test 2 is still not the same as in iTunes.
Totally frustrated, I do the following:
1. Quit all apps running in the background on the iPad.
2. Go to Settings and turn off iTunes Match.
3. Log out of the iTunes store.
4. Restart my iPad so that the playlists disappear from my Music app.
5. Turn iTunes Match back on.
6. Log back into the Store.
7. Wait for the iCloud to sync.
8. Playlist Test 2 is still in the incorrect order! This is unbelievable.
I have tried the Right-Click 'Copy to Play Order' trick that I read about in another post but it doesn't help.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Any solutions?
Thanks in advance.

This isn't an issue of putting songs on that I don't want, it's that it doesn't CHANGE my music, even when I try to make it change. I've got over 15000 songs in my iTunes; my iPod can only hold around 275 songs. My problem, is that I can't make it "randomly" choose different songs. when I try to change the music, it puts the same songs on over and over.
Emphasis here is on RANDOM: I do not want to have to select the music to put on my shuffle. and
CHANGE: If I only wanted to listen to the same 275 songs, I wouldn't have bothered purchasing the others...

Contacts on my iphone does not sync properly with icloud.

Contacts on my iphone does not sync properly with icloud. I have merged data with facebook contacts, and this merged information appears as I want it to be on icloud.com. But on the iphone, the facebook contacts and the icloud contact appear separately.
I have tried exporting the contacts out of icloud.com, then deleting all contacts on both icloud.com and on the iphone; then importing the vcard back into icloud.com, but the facebook details still appear as a separate contact. It is too time consuming to merge all of my contacts manually What should I do in order for the iphone to display the contacts as it is on icloud.com?

Is there some sort of Facebook tag on the vCard?

Reminder does not sync with shared calendar on hotmail account

Hi, I think there is a bug in the reminder app.
Since iOS5 we can now sync reminder and calendar with hotmail, but I found that reminders (tasks) of shared calenders does not sync. The calendar doesn't even appear in the list in the reminder app, although it is in the calendar app!!
See that the calendar "ÉLÉ-volution" is not synced with the reminder app?
Please help me!!

Are you syncing over USB?
If so, and you are running Mavericks on this computer, syncing over USB is not currently supported. You will have to switch to a cloud-based solution, like iCloud or Google.

My icloud account does not sync with my iphone 4s. My contacts do not show up on icloud and I do have "contacts" turned on to backup

My icloud account does not sync with my iphone 4S. My contacts do not turn up on icloud and I do have "contacts" turned on in my phone.

Unchecking them won't help, it will only hide them from view. The issue you're running into is that iCloud doesn't sync contacts from non-iCloud accounts like your exchange and Yahoo accounts. In order to sync these with iCloud, you would need to copy them to the iCloud account and then disable contact syncing with these other accounts. (If you didn't disable contacts syncing with these accounts, you would see duplicates of these contacts on your phone -- one from the external account, and one from iCloud.) If you want to do this, do the following:
Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
Download the app My Contacts Backup. (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer from your other accounts you will need the “Pro” version.) Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from the other accounts) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself. Confirm that you have received the email before proceeding to step 3.
Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), and confirm that this is set to iCloud.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars…tap your Yahoo and your exchange account and turn off contacts syncing with these accounts. This will remove the contacts from these accounts from your phone.
Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from these accounts back to your phone, and to iCloud. All your contacts should now be in iCloud and be visible on icloud.com.

BB10 - Link does not sync new Contact note entries and crashes

Hi - can anyone help.
Link 1.1.1.26 syncs new entries on both my Windows 7 PC and Q10 both ways, including any text in the Notes field. But adding or changing a Note to an existing entry does not sync.
In Link Settings I have Contacts (and Calender) ticked (blue box) but when I click on Configure next to either, to check the details of the sync, Link crashes and has to be closed via the Task Manager.
Many thanks
John Sansom
PS. Since writing the original post I have managed to get one set of Contact Notes to sync - from the PC to the BB - I was doing a manual Sync via Link. But it did not work the other way round on that occasion, and has not worked either way since that.

same with me. I have installes skype on pc and windows phone. the contact list is not the same? some contacts are missing on one device and the other device.I have signed in on both devices with same microsoft account.lates skype version cheked.

TS3999 I have a macbook Pro which had Mobileme. I have joined ICloud, but my Calendar does not sync. How do I fix this? I do not see an ICloud Icon on my laptop and the software is updated.

This is the situation with Snow Leopard and existing iCloud accounts:
You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point.
Address Book won't sync: this page has a convoluted hack to make it sync which has been reported as working (and as not working by others). I've not tried it.
There are a couple of alternative syncing services you might like to consider, though they're not particularly cheap:
Soho Organizer can sync Calendars and Contacts with iCloud on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. A single user licence (multiple machines allowed) is $99.99.
Fruux syncs Calendars, Tasks and Contacts beetween a wide variety of devices (not using the iCloud server) including Snow Leopard and above, Windows Outlook and Thunderbird, Linux Thunderbird, and iOS and Android devices - see their compatibility chart (click the blue 'i' for a caveat about Snow Leopard). It's free for one user, two shares, two devices; above that pricing starts at €4 per month.
(I have no connection with these firms and have not tried Soho Organizer, though both have had good reports and I've found Fruux to work well.)

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

iCloud will not sycn a calendar from an external source. In order to use iCloud to sync it, you would have to move it to iCloud and stop using Google. I know how to do that on a Mac, but I'm not sure how to do it on a PC. If you're using Outlook, I suspect you export it as an .ics file to your desktop, then import it to the iCloud account in Outlook. I'm sure you could use Google to find the specific steps.
However, there's really no reason not to just use Google to sync your calendar across your devices. Instead, just continue to use Goole calendar on all your devices and they should stay in sync. Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0Jj0KFgbYI.

E7-00 does not sync calendar with MfE

After Symbian Anna upgrade my E7-00 does not sync calendar at all with MfE.
Where was a problem while upgrading to symbian anna: I first tried to do it over the air, but the phone hung up while downloading part 2/2, so I ended up to do this by OviSuite. After that I sometimes get a "Järjestelmävirhe" (System Error?) alert when powering on the machine (after giving pin code).
I've tried to delete and reinstall Symbian Anna few times and removed the MfE settings but no hope. It seems to me that somehow the MfE-client (comes with symbian anna or firmware?) is still version 1.00.00 and with my collegues phone it says the version is (should be?) 3.00.000.
The collegues log (everything is working):
05/10/2011 12:00:32 Mail for Exchange Build : 3.00.000
05/10/2011 12:00:32 Device Software Version: 014.002
My log:
05/10/2011 12:05:31 Mail for Exchange Build : 1.00.000
05/10/2011 12:05:31 Device Software Version: 022.014
Is this the problem? How can I upgrade only the MfE for E7-00. Ovi Store does not support MfE download for E7.

After much fiddling with my Calendar I have resolved the problem:
1. I exported all the calendars individually and saved them on your desktop
2. Using an iOS device delete all the calendars on your iCloud account (you should be able to use iCloud.com in the same way)
3. Now that your iCloud calendar is empty, import the calendars from your desktop one by one waiting for them to fully sync before doing the next one.
4. Done!
*I discoverd that one of my calendars was corrupted and would not install, perhaps this was the problem? However I believe that it was because my calendars had too much content (multiple repeating events and sporting event subscriptions). I got rid of the sports ones (huge) it was very slow to upload, and I decided to slim that calendar down as it's not very important.
I personally think it's a calendar event overload problem, too much content for iCloud to handle. It would make sence because I had no problems with any other part of iCloud (reminders/notes...) and my iPhone calendar was fine (because it does not upload any old events, ie dramatically less content) I hope this helps!

Ovi does not sync some info with Outlook 2010

I have been struggling with syncronization issues between my Nokia N97 and Outlook 2010 for nearly a year! With the latest Ovi Suite version 2.2.0.245, finally some issues are solved but still others persist. In this thread I would like to mention that Ovi synchronization does not sync the Contacts information such as Company and E-mail.
After having paid so much money and waiting nearly for a year to have my "smart" phone to be able to sync with my computer, Nokia guys, please, is this such a hard thing to do?!?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have a brand new Nokia N8 (N8-00) and I also have a new PC running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit which I'm installing Nokia apps on for the first time.. I also run Office 2010.
I have a Nokia N86 that I wanted to transfer all my data from, and was going to use the data transfer feature built into the phones, but persevered with this problem and here is my solution. (thanks to the info above and comments in other threads)
I installed PC Suite 7.1.36 as I prefer this to the dreaded Ovi Suite, and got my data into Outlook 2010 from my N86. But of course this version of PC Suite doesn't support the N8 so I had to install Ovi Suite 3.0.0.290. I used this to update the operating system of the phone, and applied all other updates apart from two of the game updates which are failing. (a problem for next week!)
I then hit the dreaded sit and do nothing issue when trying to sync my contacts, calendar etc!
I uninstalled PC Suite 7.1.36 and downloaded PC Suite version 7.1.30.9 from rapidshare.com and sure enough this supports the N8 and I was able to get my data onto my N8!
I just have to remember NOT to update my PC Suite until the problem with Ovi is sorted! So I will use Ovi to keep my phone software up to date, and PC Suite my data.
I hope this helps others with the same problem, there seem to be quite a few of you! Please note that I am using the 64 bit version of Win 7 and so far have not hit any issues, although this was reported otherwise in this thread. In other words, copy this procedure at your own risk! ;-)

IPhone calendar does not sync new events and appointments from Outlook

iTunes 9.2.0.61/iPhone 4.0.1 - does not sync newly added events and appointments! Previously added stuff is all there, new stuff added in Outlook 2007 just doesn't show up. I've gone back to my old Palm T|X which syncs all this stuff with no problem, so it's not an Outlook bug.
It looks like Apple has put a team of junior programmers on the Calendar app - I've seen leap-year bugs (still there), events showing up on the wrong day (still there), and I'm still waiting for the "week at a glance" view. Calendar is SO important for business use that top level "gray beard" engineers need to be on this. (Question for Apple's calendar developers: what's Zeller's Congruence? It they haven't heard of it they have no business doing calendar programming.)

Spontaneously started syncing again - no idea why now, nor why it failed for so long. Related to the alarm bug? Who knows...

After upgrading to a new iMac 27 my iPhone does not sync with iTunes

After having the Apple Store migrate all my data and programs from an older iMac to a new iMac 27" my iPhone does not sync. After connecting the phone it begins and goes to about steps 3 or 4 and then the "apple" appears indicating it is finished - however new pictures have not been transferred to the phone and updates for apps have not happened. Any ideas?

Your music/movies, etc will only be where you put them.
Copy everything fom your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one

Office 2013 C2R Update Scheduled Task does not work

Hi all.
I am having difficulty getting network deployed updates to work correctly. I installed and older version of Office 2013 with the ODT from a network share and set the update path. I then downloaded an update via ODT.
The issue is the scheduled task does not update office. If I trigger or manually run from a command prompt "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\ClientX64\integratedoffice.exe RUNMODE RERUNMODE modetorun updatedetection modeargs reschedulemode tasktrigger
scheduledtask updateuitype background” from Task Scheduler nothing seems to happen. Monitoring Task Manager it looks like integratedoffice is called albeit very briefly.
But, if I run "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\ClientX64\integratedoffice.exe RUNMODE RERUNMODE modetorun updatedetection background” from a command prompt Office updates, but if I edit the Scheduled Task to above Office does not update if the
task is triggered.
As Office can update if the right command is given it would appear that my config.xml etc is correct. Any ideas on why the Scheduled Task does not work?
Cheers
Jakes

What permissions are set on the location of the updates ? C2R currently needs permissions granted for machine accounts as it runs under that context. This will change at some point that C2R gets updated.

Ical To Do list does not sync with my iPhone4 and Notes too.

1) I am surprised Why my iphone 4 does not sync ical to do list with my iphone 4's calendar.
I want to write my to do list things on my iphone and macbook pro whichever is accessible at that point of time and later on they sync with each other.
i was using a Nokia communicator and it used to sync with "ical" as if they were made for each other. i used to update the nokia or my macbook pro and they use to sync with each other PERFECTLY later on.
I bought an iphone thinking it was an apple product and would sync "PERFECTLY" with my macbook pro.
2) the notes i put up on my iphone also "DO NOT" show up on my macbook pro. So basically i have ended up buying a smartphone which is not so smart.
what i want to do is write my notes on my macbook pro and my iphone whichever is accessible at that point of time and later on they sync with each other.

ensure that your mail set up is checked for syncing note; your comment on the todo list is valid and i have been asking the same question for a while. ToDo also syncs on blackberry? I guess it shows that third party software is the kick that come corp's need to pick up their act.
